Measure of Wheat and three measures of Barley for a Penny

Re 6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

John sees a vision of 4 horses and their riders and gives a description of each one's task of being destructive. The number 4 in scripture stands for Universal so these 4 horses are the 4 winds of heaven which go out to deceive to the ends of the earth.

Zec 6:4 Then I answered and said unto the angel that talked with me, What are these, my lord?
 5 And the angel answered and said unto me, These are the four spirits of the heavens, which go forth from standing before the Yahuah of all the earth.

What must be understood in spiritual comparison is that the heavens is a synonym used for 'kingdom of heaven'. Many people think Alahim is not unjust to create evil and teach that this happened in Alahim's foreknowledge so Alahim worked with a back up plan. By teaching this they refuse to see Alahim's Sovereignty in creating man in vanity and they blame it all on Adam. Alahim designed Mystery Babylon to be within his kingdom just as he designed the tree of knowledge of good and evil and the serpent to be in the garden of Eden which stood symbolic for the kingdom of heaven.

Ge 2:9 And out of the ground made Yahuahh Alahim to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

Ge 2:10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.

The river parting into 4 heads symbolically stands for the gospel waters going to the ends of the earth and we have the 4 winds of heaven within the kingdom going to the 4 ends of the earth to dilute or distort the gospels.
This is the back ground of the 4 horses going forth to deceive.

In this study we will see the black horse and what the imagery is portrayed in these passages.
We read in Zech 6:6 that the black horses and the white horses go into the north country and the grisled go toward the south country.

Zec 6:6 The black horses which are therein go forth into the north country; and the white go forth after them; and the grisled go forth toward the south country.

The ones who went into the north country quieted the spirit of prophecy.

Zec 6:8 Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.

When we compare spiritually we see that the north country referred to is the farthest land given to Abraham's seed. In our previous studies 'Brethren or enemies of the Yahuah' & 'Gog and Magog' we have seen that Egypt, Moab, Ammon, Arabia, Edom etc were the physical seed of Abraham and enemies of Israel and hence spiritually the north country where the great sacrifice besides river Euphrates is Alahim allowing Satan to bring all false brethren against the elect who are the Israel of Alahim.

 Ge 15:18 In the same day the YAHUAH made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this landfrom the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:

 Ga 4:25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children

 Jer 46:10 For this is the day of the Yahuah GOD of hosts, a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries: and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood: for the Yahuah GOD of hosts hath a sacrifice in the north country by the river Euphrates.

Eze 38:21 And I will call for a sword against him throughout all my mountains, saith the Yahuah GOD: every man's sword shall be against his brother.

Re 16:12 ¶ And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

Re 9:14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.


Jer 51:61 And Jeremiah said to Seraiah, When thou comest to Babylon, and shalt see, and shalt read all these words;
 62 Then shalt thou say, O YAHUAH, thou hast spoken against this place, to cut it off, that none shall remain in it, neither man nor beast, but that it shall be desolate for ever.
 63 And it shall be, when thou hast made an end of reading this book, that thou shalt bind a stone to it, and cast it into the midst of Euphrates:
 64 And thou shalt say, Thus shall Babylon sink, and shall not rise from the evil that I will bring upon her: and they shall be weary. Thus far are the words of Jeremiah.

Jer 13:7 Then I went to Euphrates, and digged, and took the girdle from the place where I had hid it: and, behold, the girdle was marred, it was profitable for nothing.
 8 Then the word of the YAHUAH came unto me, saying,
 9 Thus saith the YAHUAH, After this manner will I mar the pride of Judah, and the great pride of Jerusalem.

Coming back to Zech 6:8 the black horses and the white horses that went into the north country QUIETED THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY. John in Rev 6 is given a detail of how the spirit of prophecy is quieted and this we will see in a spiritual comparison.

Re 6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
 6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

Penny:

Penny was a tribute money of Caesar.

Mt 22:19 Shew me the tribute money. And they brought unto him a penny.
 20 And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription?
 21 They say unto him, Caesar's. Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto Alahim the things that are Alahim's.

The penny has the inscription of Caesar (a beastly kingdom's king: Rome) on it.What had to be given back to Caesar was traded to buy the ' Wheat' and 'three measures of barley' which are merchandise for gospel.

A measure of wheat for a penny and three measures of wheat for a penny is a picture of the gospel mingled with the beastly kingdom of Satan i.e. Mystery Babylon. 

In the parable of being paid a penny a day all those hired laborers stood IDLE in the market place doing nothing until they were called by the master of the vineyard to work in his vineyard for a penny a day.

Mt 20:3 And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace

Mat 20:10  But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny. 

Mat 20:14  Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.
Mat 20:15  Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good? Mat 20:16  So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen. 

GO THY WAY-the laborer's did not cling to the master as they thought he was unjust. Many are called but few chosen.Alahim designed Mystery Babylon to be within his vineyard for which everyone (all who stood at the 
market place Idle-the elect as well as non elect) worked for a PENNY (a tribute money of Caesar) a day. Just as he designed the tree of knowledge of good and evil and the serpent to be in the garden of Eden which stood symbolic for the kingdom of heaven.Only the elect who see their vanity and that the wage of penny which
will not satisfy their hunger remain with the Good Master while others go their way to destruction.The last shall be first.

Wheat and Barley:

Eze 4:9  Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and fitches, and put them in one vessel, and make thee bread thereof, according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days shalt thou eat thereof. 
Eze 4:10  And thy meat which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels a day: from time to time shalt thou eat it. 
Eze 4:11  Thou shalt drink also water by measure, the sixth part of an hin: from time to time shalt thou drink. 
Eze 4:12  And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man, in their sight. 
Eze 4:13  And the YAHUAH said, Even thus shall the children of Israel eat their defiled bread among the Gentiles, whither I will drive them. 

Ezekiel is told to take wheat and barley along with lentiles, millet and fitches and make a bread out of it baked in human dung in the sight of Israel as a sign to them where they will be eating their defiled bread among the Gentiles where Alahim will drive them.

Am 8:2 And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the YAHUAH unto me, The end is come upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.
 3 And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the Yahuah GOD: there shall be many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast them forth with silence.
 4 ¶ Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,
 5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
 6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea, and sell the refuse of the wheat?
 7 The YAHUAH hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their.

In Amos 8:5 we read those clinging to Messiah waiting for the new moon and the sabbath to be gone so that they could set forth wheat making the ephah small and the shekel great by falsifying the balances. Their god is their belly.

Ps 81:3 Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our solemn feast day.
 4 For this was a statute for Israel, and a law of the Alahim of Jacob.

Le 23:23 ¶ And the YAHUAH spake unto Moses, saying, 24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation. 25 Ye shall do no servile work therein: but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the YAHUAH.

 Le 5:11 But if he be not able to bring two turtledoves, or two young pigeons, then he that sinned shall bring for his offering the tenth part of an ephah of fine flour for a sin offering; he shall put no oil upon it, neither shall he put any frankincense thereon: for it is a sin offering.

Trumpets falls on the first day of Tishri (the seventh month).Trumpets calls the people to prepare for Yom Kippuror the Day of Atonement.The ten days from Trumpets to the Day of Atonement are known as "the days of awe" and the people consider very carefully what sins will be held against them when GOD reckons up.

Spiritually what Amos 8:5 means is that those who are part of Mystery Babylon show no reverence for Messiah and only show an outward reverence for the law but their hearts are that the new moon and sabbath end quickly so that they could sell their false gospels of deceit by their falsifying balances in making the ephah the poor man's sin offering small. The ephah was a measure of fine flour used by the poorest of the people of Israel for sin offering. 

In spiritual comparison a Measure of wheat and three measures of Barley for a penny are those false brethren in the north country who come against the poorest (elect) in making the ephah small ( misrepresenting the true gospel) thus corrupting the true gospel by mingling it with doctrines of Mystery Babylon causing a quieting of the spirit of prophecy.

 Mt 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
